a little too much of a snapshot feel to compete in a Best of Challenge, 5

I really like the idea and the composition but it just doesn't seem sharp enough. Just my opinion.

I like this alot. The blurred foreground leads us in - love the green boat and there's just a little bit of mystery in that he's turned the other way.

The halo around the guy and the weeds are the only things that detract from this.

I feel there's too much negative space with all the water. If the guy were a little turned around, it might be more interesting.

more of a snapshot than a well constructed image

That's a very well dressed fisherman.. Overall a nice image, I do have to wonder what a different angle could have brought to this shot...

that green is so vivid and against the blue it really works

I'm having trouble with the composition & message you're coveying here. Good color & detail, but I'm left wondering......4

If candid, it would be good to at least see his face. A pose by his boat would have been better, I think.

The green against the blue just pops!

This looks very "English" or "Irish". Good colours.

Nice scene and exposure perfect. Just feel that the opportunity has not been used to its full potential.6
